Adults Born Premature May Be Less Likely To Experience Romantic Relationships, Have Children Than Their Full-Term Counterparts, Researchers Say

reported research indicated that “adults who were born premature were less likely to experience romantic relationships and have children than their full-term peers.” What’s more, “they were more than twice as likely to never have sex,” researchers concluded after conducting a meta-analysis that “included data from more than four million participants who were born preterm (under 37 weeks gestation) and with low birth weight.” The findings were published in JAMA Network Open. https://www.usatoday.com/story/life/parenting/2019/07/12/study-adults-born-premature-2-times-less-likely-have-sex/1720971001/
